I don't know so much about this PCI error recovery stuff but it does
seem sensible to trigger a catastrophic error async event when it
happens (I'm assuming the recovery mechanism resets the adapter).

Then we should fix at least kernel ULPs behave appropriately when they
get such an async event.  And similarly if someone wants to harden
some subset of userspace apps to handle PCI error recovery too, that
would be another step forward.
